Cekungan Tarim adalah cekungan endoreik besar di Barat Laut China yang mencakup kawasan seluas 906.500 km2 (350.000 sq mi).[1] Terletak di kawasan Xinjiang China, kadang kala secara metonimi disebut sebagai separuh selatan provinsi, atau Nanjiang (bahasa Turki: tarım havzası, Hanzi: 南疆; Pinyin: Nánjiāng; harfiah: 'Xinjiang Selatan'). Di utaranya kawasan ini berbatasan dengan Pegunungan Tian Shan dan bagian selatannya berbatasan dengan Pegunungan Kunlun pada tepian Dataran tinggi Qinghai-Tibet. Gurun Taklamakan mendominasi sebagian besar cekungan ini. Nama Uighur historis untuk Cekungan Tarim ini adalah Altishahr (六域), yang berarti "enam kota" dalam bahasa Uighur.
